1 goal per game.
Even George can manage that
 
It’s pre season , he doesn’t need to learn to play in the guts yet others need the opposure , particular the high priced mid fielders who haven’t played with the majority of their team mates . Come GF day and Cotchin comes off the ground and we don’t fall in a complete heap and then him playing forward in pre season training and matches will make sense .

Kane is trying to become or remain relevant , best to not give him any air time.
Yup
Everyone who is commenting on him is just giving him what he wants, interaction and views

It was a calculated move to call out the move of a big club high profile player and now that everyone has taken the bait he’s going to be riding this story for the entire season
 
8 laps of the Tan? Pffff. How about quit the media?
Exactly, what a f****** cop out. The bloke has said publicly that he loves long distance running and does it for the pure intrinsic enjoyment.

That'd be like me saying that if I lost a bet I'd have to go and play golf 8 days in a row.

The Cotchin plan won't work, you do have to wonder how many games we will waste trying to get it to work. Just hope it doesn't cost us any wins or young players at seasons end. It is a concern IMO, love Cotch and everything he has done for us, but he should have told the club last year he was done even if the club were the ones who convinced him to go 1 more time.
What complete and utter garbage. Cotchin is one of the smarter players in our side and knows where to go to win the footy. Always been a contested/clearance beast, and without him last year, we’d have never gotten to finals.
He has never been used as a permanent forward in games from my recollection, so therefore has no history in the position. From albeit internal practice games so far, he’s finding the scoreboard and no one, not least mugs on here, know how he will go against opposition sides. But I’m tipping that a. He’ll still play a lot of game time in the midfield as he’s elite in the clinches
and b. If the coaches think he will be an asset forward, they know a hell of a lot more than us mug punters.
Instead of so called supporters knocking a legend of the club, and putting young and up and comers ahead of him, perhaps we should see what develops and I’ve no doubt, if the move to play him forward more doesn’t get the result the coaches are after, then another players will be assigned to the role.
personally, I think he will be an asset wherever we play him. He was brilliant last season and writing him off now is just ridiculous
 
They've been trying to get Cotch playing forward for years. He's not a great goal kicker, but is capable. So playing him forward is .. interesting. But as an impact mid who plays forward it sounds good.
When have they tried to play him forward? Serious question! He’s ALWAYS been a centre square player from the games I’ve been to, and I have not missed many

Bloke can't even kick over 40 metres these days.
Dud delist.

The way you shank them, you might complete the 18 holes in eight days ;);)
 
I still maintain he should front up to Punt Road for the laps wearing a number 9 jumper in fronr of Cotch and the boys!
